Part-Skim Ricotta

Part-Skim Ricotta is a fresh Italian-style cheese commonly used in both savory dishes (lasagna, cannelloni, salads) and desserts (cheesecakes, cannoli). It’s known for a mild, slightly sweet flavor and a creamy, slightly grainy texture that blends well into recipes or spreads easily on toast. In terms of nutrition, Part-Skim Ricotta is a good source of high-quality protein, providing about 11.3g of protein per 100g, and also supplies calcium for bone health. This reduced-fat variety delivers the same useful amino acids and is fairly filling, but it contains little dietary fiber and still provides some saturated fat, so it’s best used as part of a balanced meal with vegetables, whole grains or fruit.
